    Art in Valencia During the Pandemic

    One of the strangest periods in our life was the 2020 lockdown in Spain, during which residents weren’t even allowed to leave their homes except for grocery shopping. For weeks, we stayed indoors — hanging out on Zoom with friends and family, watching loads of TV series and movies, and playing board games.

    Valencia Photos … From a Different Perspective

    The hard Spanish lockdown of 2020, when residents weren’t allowed to leave their houses except for grocery shopping, was not something I’d like to repeat any time soon.

    A Day Trip to Moixent

    Moixent is found in the southwestern corner of the Valencian province, but still within the border — at this time in the early summer of 2020, we still wouldn’t have been allowed to cross over into Alicante.

    It’s hard to believe that it’s almost time for Fallas 2022! We can still smell the smoke from the last edition of the festival (there might still be gunpowder particles in our noses).

    Fireworks for the Opening Ceremony of the Ninot Exhibition for Fallas 2022

    I always wanted to see fireworks at Calatrava’s City of Arts and Sciences in Valencia, imagining how spectacular they must look against the futurist architecture. Turns out, my imagination was spot-on; the fireworks which celebrating the opening of this year’s Ninot Exhibition looked just as breathtaking as I had hoped.

    Unpublished Photos of Oviedo and Asturias

    2010 was a big year for us. That was the year, we sold almost everything that we owned, and put the rest in storage, with the giddy proposition of traveling the world non-stop, 91 days at a time.

    The Abandoned Formula 1 Race Track in Valencia – URBEX

    Formula 1’s presence in Valencia was short-lived, but we have clear memories of it. We were living in Ruzafa at the time, quite far removed from the racetrack at the harbor, but we still couldn’t escape the thundering sound of the cars tearing down the pavement.
